Anderlecht - AC Milan
Anderlecht faces Milan in a direct clash for qualifying in the Champions League eliminations stage. For the team of Anderlecht the dream of the 1/8 finals seems rather achievable now, but they must win this match.
Only one point separates these two teams and the home win would put Anderlecht in a very favorable position, since in the next match they will visit the already qualified Malaga.
The players of AC Milan, in turn, have the opportunity to erase a bit the shame of the poor results this season, with a good run in the Champions League.
A win for them would mean that even if Zenit wins the match against Málaga, Milan will need just a point in the final round to qualify second. There is a fierce battle for the second place in group C of
the Champions League.
Six of the Milan players can not take part in this match due to injuries: Djamel Mesbah, Luca Antonini, Ignazio Abate, Daniele Bonera, Rodney Strasser and Dídac. On the other hand, Allegri will now be able to use
Pato, Robinho and Pazzini, but probably the great form of Shaarawy would guarantee him a starting place. The twenty-year-old, talented Italian has managed to score 10 goals in 13 games in Serie A this season. For the team of Anderlecht there are
no serious problems regarding injuries and will start with the best. Anderlecht have been starting with the same first eleven in their last 3 matches and won them all, including a victory over Zenit in the Champions League.
In Serie A, AC Milan is at the unusual for them 12th place, being behind 17 points of leader Juventus and 8 points of the 5th Lazio. Perhaps the Rossoneri will direct all their efforts for achieving some good results in the Champions League.
The victory in this match for the Italians is mandatory. Will Milan players be able to cope with the heavy task they face, or will register for the team one of the weakest seasons in recent years?
